History

Golden Goose was founded in 2000 in the industrial district of Marghera near Venice. The brand initially focused on producing high fashion sneakers distinguished by handcrafted details and a signature distressed, vintage look.[3][4]

In 2007, Golden Goose introduced its Super-Star sneaker model, featuring the iconic five-point star logo that became a symbol of the brand.[5]

In 2021, Golden Goose moved its corporate headquarters to Milan, Italy, while maintaining a creative and cultural presence in its original Marghera location through the opening of HAUS Marghera, an immersive space dedicated to craftsmanship and community.[6][7]

The company reported approximately €500 million in annual sales in 2023, with footwear representing around 90% of total revenue.[8]

Golden Goose planned an initial public offering (IPO) in June 2024, which was subsequently delayed due to market conditions.[9]
